A few words from our entrepreneurs
“Being accelerated by WILCO allowed us to build skills in different areas, from recruitment to management and customer acquisition. The WILCO Entrepreneur Loan enabled us to recruit our first interns and finalize prototyping. Regular support from WILCO experts was essential in winning and negotiating with our first clients.

A few words from our large companies
Managing Director, Accelair
“Air Liquide has been partnering with WILCO for several years now. This partnership has been reinforced since ACCELAIR implemented Deep Tech, our startup accelerator. ACCELAIR helps WILCO analyze startups during the selection phase to identify and source the most compatible ones. Of all the events organized by WILCO, the “Reverse Pitch” helped us identify 3 interesting startups. These discussions could lead to the implementation of concept proofs to test the technologies developed, a new tool that supports Air Liquide’s open innovation strategy.

WILCO Mentor
” As the former CEO of Bosch Rexroth France, I help startups make early-stage decisions that are essential for their growth and success. As well as providing access to a significant network and wide-reaching vision of an industry, mentoring also offers the startup stability and a fast learning curve for decision points. All these topics are easier to resolve with many years of experience and insight.
